I think that the starting line-up was all right, except leaving the fullback with the best speed on the bench :)facepalm:) and putting a 1,93 fullback to defend against Madrid :)facepalm: x2). That cost us. That and not playing Mascherano in midfield, after he's been MotM IMO (or close) against Ajax there.

If we can't hold the ball for 65-70% of the game, than using Busi as sole DM is suicidal, and the fact Lucho didn't understand this means he's clueless as a coach. And also, another problem, I tought we was a good motivator and will bring the fitness back. We were suffocated by Madrid. It was like they had more strenght, more stamina, more speed.

This team needs a transition to 4-2-3-1 fast.

Why not get a world class coach like every other big team this time around.

He would inherit the same problems Lucho now has and it won't make much difference IMO. Don't forget that RM lost twice to us last season and then won CL so anything can happen.

Its no discussion Carlo >Lucho. Ridiculous some people even try to dispute this.

I still don't think we need to panic. This was a learning experience for Lucho( like Carlo's losses to us) but the part that bothers me is that we hired him after he failed at Roma and managed Celta which is nowhere close to being Barca. We don't exactly know if he is able to be flexible in tactics the way Carlo, Pep, even Jose (with his current Chelsea team) are. He needs to take this experience and see what he did wrong to make sure it never happens again.

Not a bad plan. Rakitic Masch pivot with neymar messi and someone else. Then suarez as a nine.

Mathieu at LB against top teams is off the table.

Bartra needs to be starter alongside Mathieu.

Mascherano DM.

Would love to see a total revolution now. Major changes are needed and I hope Lucho has the balls to do it.

That's on the board/pres and Zubi. Cancers.

Of course, i'm aware this isn't luchos fault, hence why i say we fail summer after summer in reinforcing the defense.

It's already 4 or 5 years we should have upgraded our defense, but Zubi doesn't see it...

When does Pep's contract with Bayern expire?

You want to bring a guy who lost to RM twice last season in CL? :) But seriously it's just an away game against very good team, RM lost twice to us last season, so what, it's the end of the season what matters.
